Wife Wants to Leave Marriage 6

Tread, I think your anger may be motivating you.

If you quit to protect yourself, you're doing it for yourself. But if you shine the light on them, you're not really doing that for yourself. Your brain may *tell* you you're doing the right thing bc you're not covering for your W, but that's your brain trying to rationalize your actions.

Sometimes we decide something emotionally, almost subconsciously, then our brain comes in to rationalize things and try to provide an explanation after the fact.

I'm speaking from experience here, unfortunately.
